Systems & Code第 32 / 110 题
A wet-vented bathroom group discharges 5 DFU to a wet vent section. Wet vent capacity limits are 1-1/2 in = 1 DFU, 2 in = 4 DFU, and 3 in = 6 DFU. What is the minimum wet vent size?
a.1-1/2 in
b.2 in
c.4 in
d.3 in
解析
The 5 DFU load exceeds the 4 DFU capacity of a 2 in wet vent, so the next size, 3 in (6 DFU), is required. A wet vent uses an oversized drain to also serve as a vent, but only up to the fixture-unit cap for its size. Exceeding the cap forces a larger wet vent or separate venting.
